Mass Effect 2 Lair of the Shadowbroker DLC Announced

BioWare is making good on its pledge to continue to support its acclaimed sci-fi epic Mass Effect 2 through downloadable content, as the developer has announced the first details and screens for its latest DLC, Lair of the Shadowbroker.

The newest downloadable chapter in Commander Shepard’s epic adventure finds him teamed up with his savior of sorts, the beautiful blue information broker, Liara T’Soni, as they track down and confront the dangerous Shadow Broker, whom Liara fought to "save" Shepard following Shepard’s death at the end of Mass Effect.

BioWare said last week that fans should expect to see the frequency of ME2 DLC releases to diminish as BioWare ramps up development on its Mass Effect 3“bridging” DLC, so this announcement is a bit of a surprise given that the last story-based DLC, Overlord, just came out last month.

More details about Lair of the Shadowbroker should be coming shortly, such as pricing and release info, but for now, these new screens will have to do:
